Reviews Summary
Malone's is highly praised for its exceptional USDA Prime steaks and delicious sides, with many diners highlighting the perfectly cooked 16oz ribeye and filet mignon. The bottomless Lexingtonian salad is a frequent favorite, and the attentive, friendly service contributes to a consistently positive dining experience. While most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, occasional mentions of steaks being slightly overcooked do appear.
"What an amazing place for a date night (or if you just want some excellent food)..
We started off with the all you can eat house salad which was delicious.. until the main course came, I completely forgot about salad. My filet with blackened shrimp was cooked perfectly AND one of the best I've had. Those brussel sprouts I could eat every day, AMAZING! my wife's Bluegrass chicken was fantastic.
Our waiter Spencer and his assistant Allie made a great team and insured we had everything we needed with great hospitality.
The next time I'm in Kentucky, I'm eating HERE!"

"There is always Ruth Chris and The Capital Grille but MALONE’S is my favorite. To me it gives off an old school-modern type restaurant with a sports bar to the side theme. Excellent steaks, excellent folks working in there and excellent service too. You wont be disappointed when you go. Came all the way from NC with my wife and we enjoyed this experience 🤗💯"

"Stopped in to Harry’s with the kids after the movies. Nice, low key atmosphere. Accommodating and friendly staff. Delicious steak tacos and melt in your mouth Crab Rangoon appetizer. My husband had the twin filets and of course, I had to sample. Mouthwatering and delightfully tender. Kiddos enjoyed their food too, full bellies and happy campers. Also received a $25 gift card for a promotion running, spending over $100. Nice little kick back, thanks!
10/10 recommend."
